What Can Be Done for Pulled-in Surgery Scars?

Kay1214
I had a lumpectomy and removal of 3 lymph nodes and radiation on the left side that left me with pulled-in, nasty scars, and a nipple that faces to the side. A surgeon did a lift (under the breast has bad keloid scar) on the right side and filled in where the scars where pulling in. Now it's starting to pull-in again in the same area. What can be done to get me back to a normal look.
